At some point between [[M33]] and [[M39]] the [[Space Hulk]] ''[[Ominous Gift]]'' was detected heading towards Terra from the dark void. The hulk was deemed corrupt by [[Captain-General]] [[Aesoth Koumadra]] and destroyed from the inside by a force of Custodians led by the Lockwarden of the Shadowseekers.{{fn|1b}}
During the [[Battle of Lion's Gate]], Lockwarden [[Borsa Thursk]] gave the order for many of the Shadowkeepers to join the battle, leaving only a handful behind to guard the cells. When the [[Great Rift]] opened, several cells were found suddenly empty, the entities and artefacts within were somehow released, or escaped, killing the Shadowkeepers left behind. Thursk ordered a retreat, abandoning the ongoing battle, but found several cells empty with no trace of their former occupants. {{fn|3}} The Shadowkeepers have now sent warriors out into the galaxy on secretive reclamation missions to find the lost remnants of the [[Age of Strife]] and return them to the cells.{{Fn|1a}} They have since deployed a force to the ruins of [[Cadia]] for an unknown but important mission directly ordered by [[Trajann Valoris]].{{Fn|1b}}
